Chapter 290

Because.

"How bold, Zhunti, you actually dare to strike at my disciple." A sharp, thunderous shout came from the void.

Immediately following, a cyan longsword shot forth from the void, making this entire Sea of Blood seem as if it were about to be torn apart, causing the blood sea to churn violently.

That was an attack carrying the power of the Primordial Chaos.

"Not good." Zhunti, who had struck at Luo Fu, saw his expression change drastically. He gripped his right hand, and a branch flashing with seven-colored light appeared in his palm, with various treasures like gold, silver, and colored glaze hanging from it.

Dao runes emerged continuously upon this branch.

This was the supreme treasure in Zhunti's hand, the Seven-Treasured Tree.

The Seven-Treasured Tree, there is nothing it cannot brush away.

Anything brushed by the Seven-Treasured Tree would almost certainly be taken away by Zhunti.

This was the life-bound supreme treasure that Zhunti had refined and forged using himself and numerous magic treasures.

That he could directly bring out his own life-bound supreme treasure.

Was enough to show just how terrifying the power of that cyan longsword's attack was.

"Boom..."

One could see Zhunti sweeping the Seven-Treasured Tree across the void, colliding with that cyan longsword.

The two forces collided, and an earth-shattering sound vibrated and erupted continuously throughout this void.

The entire Sea of Blood was churning incessantly.

Seeing this scene, the face of Ancestor Minghe turned somewhat green.

If Saints were to fight here, his Sea of Blood truly could not withstand it, and it might even easily be blasted apart.

In that case, the losses for Ancestor Minghe would be immense.

The fact that Luo Fu had used a portion of the Sea of Blood to complete the grand feat of opening the Six Paths of Reincarnation had not caused much damage to Ancestor Minghe.

This was also what Luo Fu had told Ancestor Minghe at the very beginning.

The reason why opening the Six Paths of Reincarnation was not necessarily a bad thing for Ancestor Minghe, and might even be a good thing.

A tiny portion of the Sea of Blood could be exchanged for a certain amount of merit and fortune; for Ancestor Minghe, that was still a profit.

But now that Saints were going to fight here, that was a major crisis for Ancestor Minghe.

However, facing this situation, Ancestor Minghe could do nothing.

After all, the strength of the Saints exceeded his, and he could not possibly stop a battle between Saints.

At this moment, Minghe could only hope that the battle between Zhunti and Tongtian Jiaozhu would not become increasingly intense in this Sea of Blood.

As for why Ancestor Minghe knew that the person who had suddenly descended here would be Tongtian Jiaozhu.

This could be heard from those words just now.

To be able to address Luo Fu as a disciple, there was only one of the Three Pure Ones, Tongtian Jiaozhu.

"Boom..."

Discharging this Saintly power, Zhunti's footsteps retreated slightly, and he finally steadied his body; the light of the Seven-Treasured Tree dimmed slightly.

In the confrontation just now with Tongtian Jiaozhu, Zhunti had not gained the upper hand.

"So it is Fellow Daoist Tongtian." Zhunti bowed slightly toward the figure that had appeared in this world, "Just now, this poor Daoist merely discovered that Fellow Disciple Luo Fu seemed to have his mind affected by some inexplicable power, which is why I wanted to strike to stop that power."

These words were naturally Zhunti telling a lie with his eyes open.

Luo Fu was, of course, not affected by any power; it could only be said that this was a reason Zhunti had found after striking at Luo Fu just now.

He could not strike at Tongtian's direct disciple for no reason.

If that were the case, then it would mean Tongtian could likewise strike at the disciples of the Western Sect.

The disciples of the Western Sect were already few, and if they were also targeted by Saints like Tongtian, then for the Western Sect, that would be a major crisis.

Therefore, Zhunti naturally could not tell Tongtian that he had struck at Luo Fu because he wanted to scheme for a spot in the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

"Is that so?" Tongtian looked coldly at Zhunti.

He naturally knew that this was merely an excuse from this Western Saint.

"Zhunti, do you think I am a fool?" Tongtian Jiaozhu's eyes carried a trace of cold light, "Perhaps later I can also perform the same behavior toward the disciples of your Western Sect."

"Fellow Daoist Tongtian, you are joking." Jieyin stepped forward and said hurriedly, "Just now it was the fault of Junior Brother Zhunti; he was too reckless, and it is also to blame that I did not stop my junior brother in time. I will go and properly reprimand my junior brother."

"If there is nothing else, this poor Daoist will take my junior brother and leave the Sea of Blood to return to the West."

At this moment, Jieyin no longer had any thoughts of interfering with the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

This was because the best opportunity had already been missed.

If they could have made Luo Fu agree to their request before the Three Pure Ones and others had descended, then even if the Three Pure Ones came, they would have had a reason to stay here.

But just now, Luo Fu had not agreed to their request.

More importantly, at this time, not only had Tongtian Jiaozhu arrived, but the other two Saints, Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun, had also arrived here.

Even if Zhunti were to tear off the mask of civility with Tongtian, what use would it have?

If it were merely Tongtian Jiaozhu as a single Saint, then it would be a different situation.

"Reprimand your junior brother." Tongtian Jiaozhu sneered, "Jieyin, do you think that the matter of Zhunti dealing with my disciple just now can be settled so simply?"

"Fellow Daoist Tongtian, I do not know what you would like to do." Saint Jieyin said slowly.

"What would I like to do." Tongtian Jiaozhu's eyes narrowed.

If he could, he would like to properly teach Zhunti a lesson.

Regarding his own strength, Tongtian still had a certain amount of confidence.

Of course, Tongtian Jiaozhu also had to consider the feelings of his own disciple and see what his disciple wanted to do.

"Luo Fu, just now Zhunti wanted to deal with you; what do you want your master to do?" Tongtian Jiaozhu said in a deep voice, "Your master can properly teach Zhunti a lesson for you; of course, I can also make Zhunti and the others pay some price to compensate for your losses."

"Master." Luo Fu bowed to Tongtian Jiaozhu, "Disciple wishes to properly teach Senior Zhunti a lesson."

"Hahaha, good, good..." Tongtian Jiaozhu laughed, "This is worthy of being my disciple; Luo Fu, you have not disappointed your master."

For Tongtian Jiaozhu.

If Luo Fu had chosen to let Zhunti and the others bring out heavenly treasures to compensate himself, then although Luo Fu would have been somewhat disappointing, he would not have said anything.

But now that Luo Fu expressed that he wanted to properly teach Zhunti a lesson, that was very much to Tongtian Jiaozhu's liking.

Since the grudge had already been formed, then naturally one must take proper revenge.

"Zhunti, it seems you and I must have a proper battle." Tongtian Jiaozhu gripped the Qingping Sword, and his Saintly aura was released.

The terrifying Great Dao of the Sword permeated around Tongtian Jiaozhu, suppressing the surrounding Dao laws.

"Since Fellow Daoist Tongtian has such an inclination, I, Zhunti, will naturally accompany you." Zhunti's gaze flickered, and he finally agreed to this battle.

If it were purely a battle between him and Tongtian Jiaozhu alone, he, Zhunti, would not be afraid.

As a Saint of the Heavenly Dao as well, could it be that his strength was weaker than Tongtian Jiaozhu's?

That was not necessarily the case.

Beside them, Saint Jieyin was silent; the scene before them was perhaps a very good choice.

This could avoid the Three Pure Ones dealing with them together.

Since Tongtian and Zhunti were to engage in battle.

The two Saints, Laozi and Yuanshi Tianzun, would likely find it difficult to strike at them.

"Good." Tongtian Jiaozhu said in a deep voice, "Then let us head to the Chaos together."

That is correct.

For a battle between Saints, if they truly wanted to exert their full strength, only in the Chaos could they be so unbridled.

If they were to fight in the Primordial World, the destruction to the Primordial World would be too great.

Not to mention that the Dao Ancestor Hongjun might strike at them.

Even the Heavenly Dao might punish them.

This was just like during the Great Calamity of the Lich, whether it was the Wu Clan or the Demon Race, in their final battle, they had erupted with power comparable to the Hunyuan Da Luo.

It was precisely because of such a terrifying and shocking battle.

That caused incomparably terrifying destruction to the entire Primordial world, the Primordial world shattering, the firmament shattering, and so on.

After that battle.

Whether it was the Wu Clan or the Demon Race, the upper echelons were almost completely wiped out, and they naturally fell from being the protagonists of the Heavenly Dao.

Losing the fortune of being the protagonists of heaven and earth.

It can only be said that the protagonists of heaven and earth, in this Primordial world, were always in a state of flux.
